My Project
After teaching for nearly thirty years, I understand, if a child is hungry, he/she may not be able to function. Some of my students have to eat at school, because food is scarce at home. Hence, I have always shared whatever food I have in my class with students.
Help me to give my students a hearty snack pack to take home for the summer.
Students may be able to enjoy their summer, when students’ attention is not focused on being hungry. I have always placed emphasis on meeting the needs of our children at school and often at home also.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
